Answer:

0.276I_0

Explanation:

When unpolarized light passes through a polarizer, only the component of the light vibrating in the direction parallel to the axis of the polarizer passes through: therefore, the intensity of light is reduced by half, since only 1 out of 2 components passes through.

So, after the first polarizer, the intensity of light passing through is:

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}

Where I_0 is the initial intensity of the unpolarized light.

Then, the light (which is now polarized) passes through the second polarizer. Here, the intensity of the light passing through the second polarizer is given by Malus Law:

I_2=I_1 cos^2 \theta

where:

\theta is the angle between the axes of the two polarizers

In this problem the angle is

\theta=42^{\circ}

So the intensity after of light the 2nd polarizer is:

I_2=I_1 (cos 42^{\circ})^2=\frac{I_0}{2}(cos 42^{\circ})^2=0.276I_0

Un satélite geoestacionario se encuentra a una distancia de 120.000 km sobre la superficie de Júpiter. Determine: a. El periodo
Lisa [10]

Answer:

a) a geostationary satellite is that it is always at the same point with respect to the planet,

b) f = 2.7777 10⁻⁵ Hz

c)                           d)   w = 1.745 10⁻⁴ rad / s

Explanation:

a) The definition of a geostationary satellite is that it is always at the same point with respect to the planet, that is, its period of revolutions is the same as the period of the planet

  •                T = 10 h (3600 s / 1h) = 3.6 104 s

b) the period the frequency are related

                T = 1 / f

                 f = 1 / T

                 f = 1 / 3.6 104

                 f = 2.7777 10⁻⁵ Hz

c) the distance traveled by the satellite in 1 day

The distance traveled is equal to the length of the circumference

                 d = 2pi (R + r)

                 d = 2pi (69 911 103 + 120 106)

                 d = 1193.24 m

d) the angular velocity is the angle traveled between the time used.

                 .w = 2pi /t

                  w = 2pi / 3.6 10⁴

                  w = 1.745 10⁻⁴ rad / s

how fast is

                  v = w r

                  v = 1.75 10-4 (69.911 106 + 120 106)

                  v = 190017 m / s

How does the structure of the stigma aid in pollination
natali 33 [55]
<span>Pollination is the process by which pollen is transferred to the female part of a plant. The stigma is the central part of the flower, that is supported by a style and is part of the female reproductive organ within plants. Its structure is optimised to promote pollination by having hairs, sticky surfaces and three-dimensional sculptures that capture and trap pollen.</span>

a fast charged particle passes perpendicularly through a thin glass sheet of index of refraction 1.5. The particle emits light i
NeX [460]

The minimum speed of the particle is the Speed of light in glass is c/μ=2×108m/s.

<h3>Why is the refractive index important?</h3>

The higher the refractive index the slower the light travels, which causes a correspondingly increased change in the direction of the light within the material. What this means for lenses is that a higher refractive index material can bend the light more and allow the profile of the lens to be lower.

Refractive index values are usually determined at standard temperature. A higher temperature means the liquid becomes less dense and less viscous, causing light to travel faster in the medium.

Which graph illustrates constant speed and velocity?
boyakko [2]

The correct graph is <u>D</u>.

The graph <em>A</em> is a straight line sloping downwards and it shows that the speed of the body is decreasing at a constant rate. Therefore, this s a graph of a body that is under a constant deceleration.

The graph B is a straight line which slopes upwards. Hence the graph shows that the speed of the body increases at a constant rate. Therefore, this is a graph of a body that is accelerating at a constant rate.

The graph C is curved line, which curves upwards. The slope of the curve increases with time. This is therefore, a graph of a body which is under increasing acceleration.

The graph D, however is a straight line parallel to the time axis. The speed of the body has the same value at all times. Therefore, Graph D is the graph which shows the motion of a body with constant speed.
